Never knew "M" stood for "Mohamed". Are you trying to say Mohamed is coming to the mountain (St James)?

Imagine if he was on the same team w/the fictional Jesus Shuttlesworth and the late, great Moses Malone.

This is a great article. I think that Jaden may be exactly the kind of guy who gets missed by others due to circumstances that we can then steal and make great! The IMG experience is a rigorous one. I loved this part in the article: "“When you’re recruited, it’s usually an assistant coach who does that. But at Holy Cross, the whole staff was involved. I felt wanted.” "

Hope you are right and the best teaching coach gets him right now-seems like nice upside here

Jimmy Baron, who is coaching at IMG, said Jaden was a great addition to the Holy Cross program..He will fit in nicely.. (I have gotten to know Jimmy since he is married to one of my friends daughter, we usually play golf together during the summer.)

Played varsity ball as a soph (freshmen weren't eligible then), then left; not sure if injury had anything to do with his departure. Tough competitor, IIRC; not much of a scoring threat.

And his brother/uncle ?, Joe, went to HC briefly under Jack Donohue Joe Barron is Jimmy’s Uncle and brother to former URI coach JIm Barron. I remember Joe well, lived on the same corridor Sophomore year. Unfortunately lost track of him after 1970. The reference above first caught me by surprised, as I thought the reference was to Jaden having an uncle who played at HC. While my memory is still good, I could not recall a Joe Kirkwood playing at HC during the Donohue era. Still find it ironic that Jaden attended the Jack Donahue Elementary School. Small world indeed. Jack will be looking down, and will be a inspiration for Jaden
